Hi Sandy,

Thanks so much for taking time to post all of this info! 6 years is wonderful.

I pray that I get approved for the band. I started this process last June and I jumped through all the hoops, so I thought and now I'm having to do more for the insurance company. The long sad story is all in my blog. I'm going to keep on fighting. I know this will band will work for me. I can lose weight, I just haven't been able to keep it off.

Thanks again for sharing your time on this board to help others!
Kristi
